Grahm-Leach-Bailey or something like that if I remember correctly.

Yep...Bliley...and who the hell are they?

What was the name of that act?

I assume that you are referring to the Commodity Futures Modernisation Act of 2000.

I'm aware of the act. I'm not following Althea's who are they? What does that mean?

I think she is talking about the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act aka Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999.

Who are Phil Gramm, Jim Leach, and Thomas Bliley?

Actually, it was Cawacko that was talking about that bill, and ascribing it to Clinton.

It was down to Clinton, he was the president at the time.

What do you mean who are they? Are we on Jeopardy? Why don't you tell me who they are if you are asking a rhetorical question.

I guess the point is that you aren't aware of the history behind the repeal of Glass/Steagall, yet you ascribe same to Clinton. I thought I'd offer you the opportunity to read up on the issue.

What did he get in return?

What do you mean I am not aware of the history of the repeal of Glass/Steagall? In what way am I not aware?

Althea, I see you posting. I'm still curious what you were referring to when asking me what I know about Glass/Steagal?
